Need help figuring out how much offset I need
Hi,
I just put high steer and 3 inch trail gear lift springs(= 4 inchish lift). I currently have stock 15 inch steely wheels with 28inx7 tires, and want to put 35x10.5 tires. As of right now my 28x7 tires are pretty close to rubbing up against the steering knuckles. I want to get new 15 inch steely wheels and need to figure out what offset I need to clear knuckles. Any help would be great. thanks for your time.

What year? Don't remember back spacing of mine. Think 4" or 4.25" mine is SAS so run 3" spacers in front and 1.5 in back. Tires were rubbing frame rail in rear is why I run rear spacers and wider front. My tires are 35x12.5x15 KM2s.
4 crawler has a good section on back spacing.
